It's 8:08am from my country聽
I have just finished taking a hot 馃嵉(tea) And a warmth 馃泙( bath) 聽just so I do not loose the inspiration of what I've got in mind for a while now....
And here I made a poem for this community聽

MINNOWS STRUGGLE FOR RECOGNITION
If you've got a time
Could you look deep
Lo this abandoned talent
Craving for recognition聽
In this so busy world.
Here is this day-to-day struggle
To this large eyes of connectivity聽
And only I can see is wasted talents聽
Who deep at night聽
In sacrifice of their comfort聽
Seek for serenity
To bring to the world ideas
Ideas not to be trashed upon.
I understand you 馃惓 (whale)
You do not have time
For this minnows ideas
Perhaps they do not suit you
Or your so cozy busy schedule聽
Do not allow it.
Perhaps minnows got nothing
But raw talents and great ideas
Brilliant efforts and creativity聽
Lies deep in them聽
Ignorantly being swept away.
At first
Each with 馃椈 (mount) 聽of expectations
Of rewards 聽of 聽a WOW effort聽
But so easy it is to get dissapointed 聽聽
"Aww, let's try again, 聽
Probably there's something wrong聽
With the other one",
Here is when patience speaks
But how long is it gonna last???
Certainly there was no problem,
What a great content馃憣
Being pushed under the carpet聽
And long forgotten.......馃槖馃槖馃槖

In as much as I do not want to be rude but somehow I feel like I let out my opinion on this. Well I must say am sorry if somehow you get offended at what I wrote, probably how you understood it but certainly not how I meant it to be...
But I must say, it baffles me, how so many people in this community, 聽just within two weeks old here make a lot of $, SBD, steam power, 聽etc. Some even in their first intro post also have a reward馃憦馃憦馃憦 WOW!!!
Perhaps or you can tell me, why some of us who are over 3 months old or even 聽close to 2 years in this community still remain as minnows with absolutely nothing to show as a reward.聽
I see many post here talking about one creating a good content, 聽making a quality comment and reply, 聽but am more of lost here or maybe my kind of great content isn't the same as yours, cause every day, I come across lots of great content with no appropriate reward.聽
I do not know if there's more to it cause am really so confused.
There's a day, I came across an empty post written " A MISTAKE" just only that with hundreds of steemians upvoting that very post. I do not know if that is what this community mean by a great content cause what 聽I saw was empty and meaningless...
Sometimes, I do not blame those people who prefer uploading on other social media other than steemit cause somehow, 聽they got audience even without getting any $ but there's a reward of recognition, at least some words of encouragement like " wow great post buddy, I admire your creativity " would 聽do. No matter how little your followers are, they are still some people ready to click the like button and of course leave an encouraging comments for your post unlike steemit, where it seem like you are writing to yourself alone.聽
Sometimes it's not just about the money but someone's efforts.聽
When I got into this community, 聽I had a lot of expectations just like every other person with much enthusiasm about the whole thing but somehow, it's becoming annoying and I must say it's unfair.聽
I wish this community would look deep into this issue cause I know that more of thousands of steemians are going through this challenge.....
